COVID-19 support, resources and guidelines for online teaching and learning. Teaching and Learning in the Time of Covid-19. Published 7 August 2020 I asked several parents who are also teachers to talk about their personal experiences during lockdown, in the hope that this new relationship could lead to a brighter educational future.

Teaching and Learning in the Time of Covid-19

Research shows that the most important factor in a child’s educational success is the involvement of their parents or primary carers. In the first weeks of disruption caused by the pandemic, parents (especially of kindergarten and primary children) were essential to the coordinated effort of getting lessons up and running. Since then, they have become co-teachers and allies. How can teachers and school systems respond to the COVID-19 pandemic? Some lessons from TALIS - OECD Education and Skills Today. By Andreas Schleicher Director, OECD Directorate for Education and Skills As the world becomes increasingly interconnected, so do the risks we face.

How can teachers and school systems respond to the COVID-19 pandemic? Some lessons from TALIS - OECD Education and Skills Today

The COVID-19 pandemic doesn’t stop at national borders, and it affects people regardless of nationality, level of education, income or gender. But that may not be true for its consequences, which are likely to hit the most vulnerable hardest. Education is no exception. This crisis exposes the many inequities in our education systems – from the broadband and computers needed for online education, through to the supportive environments needed to focus on learning, up to our failure to attract talented teachers to the most challenging classrooms. Mexico’s COVID-19 distance education program compels a re-think of the country’s future of education. Saturday, March 14, 2020 was a historic day for education in Mexico.

Mexico’s COVID-19 distance education program compels a re-think of the country’s future of education

Through an official statement, the Secretariat of Public Education (SEP) informed students and their families that schools would close to reinforce the existing measures of social distancing in response to COVID-19 and in accordance with World Health Organization recommendations. Mexico began to implement distance education programs such as Aprende en Casa (Learn at Home), where primary and secondary school students can access educational content on television and the internet to continue their learning. However, due to the lack of internet connectivity in isolated parts of the country, the Aprende en Casa program is not accessible to all students, especially girls. Because of both physical distance to schools and gender norms that keep them at home, they are in the greatest need of distance education programs that can be enjoyed safely. Free internet access.

This measure helped control the number of contagions among the children and youth population; however, it jeopardized the completion of the 2019-2020 school year, mainly in the public schools. Due to the advance of the contagion, the federal government proposes to start the next school year 2020-2021 with distance education, using television stations to bring educational content to all the homes in Mexico. With this proposal, it would seem that the next school year's challenge is solved; however, distance education presents many challenges to reach all the school-age population of children and young people.

Gamificación: pedagogías emergentes para tiempos de confinamiento (VI)

Hace unos meses atrás, esta podría haber sido una frase fantasiosa para iniciar una clase gamificada en las aulas de primaria. Y como la realidad siempre supera a la ficción, aquí estamos, con el mundo en pausa y buscando soluciones.

Now Is Not the Time to Assess Online Learning. In a recent Chronicle Review essay, Jonathan Zimmerman called the coronavirus outbreak a natural experiment during which colleges can, at last, perform research about the effectiveness of online learning. He claimed that the jury is out about “whether the move to online learning is good or bad for students” because research to date is “marred by the problem of self-selection” and because colleges sell the convenience of online study while papering over how “people with less academic opportunity and skill were likely to suffer more from online instruction.”

Based on those assumptions, Zimmerman called for research to take advantage of this “set of unprecedented natural experiments” in which everyone is now “compelled to take all of their classes online.” But this call for research rests on assumptions that are at best contentious and at worst untrue. But these are not solvable problems. Actividades Montessori para bebés y niños. La médica italiana María Montessori ideó un método educativo caracterizado por poner énfasis en las actividades de los niños, pues el niño en sus primeros 3 años se encuentra en el periodo llamado ¨Mente absorbente¨. El objetivo de este método es liberar el potencial de cada niño mientras logra su propio desarrollo en un ambiente estructurado, mientras son observados y guiados por un maestro. Al aplicar algunas de las técnicas de este método en casa, los pequeños pueden aprender algunas habilidades motrices y cognitivas que pueden servirle mucho para su desarrollo.

Esta etapa es clave por la facilidad y rapidez de aprendizaje, siendo un periodo sensible para: The Difference Between Emergency Remote Teaching and Online Learning. Well-planned online learning experiences are meaningfully different from courses offered online in response to a crisis or disaster. Colleges and universities working to maintain instruction during the COVID-19 pandemic should understand those differences when evaluating this emergency remote teaching. Due to the threat of COVID-19, colleges and universities are facing decisions about how to continue teaching and learning while keeping their faculty, staff, and students safe from a public health emergency that is moving fast and not well understood.

Mark Scott Hi, I'm Mark Scott, Secretary of the NSW Department of Education. Welcome to Every Student, the podcast where I get to introduce you to some of our great leaders in education. Today my special guest is John Hattie, Laureate Professor of the Melbourne Graduate School of Education, and Chair of the Australian Institute for Teaching and School Leadership.

John's work is internationally acclaimed and his influential book, Visible Learning, is believed to be the world's largest evidence-based study into the factors that improve student learning. He's just the person to put into context the effects of COVID-19 on student learning and to help us think through how we best return our students to the classroom and what the balance of the 2020 school year should look like. John Hattie It's great to be with you, Mark. John, at the beginning of the school year, we would have thought that bushfires would have been the major impact on teaching and learning in many of our schools. Pleasure. Instantly Shifting Classes Online Is Not Trivial. In response to the novel coronavirus, many South Korean universities have moved their teaching online.

Students are still provided with the required number of class hours but without face-to-face contact with teachers. The ministry of education in the UAE has announced that university teaching will move online. In Italy, the government has ordered the closure of all universities until March 15. Italian universities, too, are switching to online teaching, as are numerous institutions in the United states and United Kingdom This global shift to online learning follows the example set by universities in China, where the outbreak first began. Carefully implemented, online learning can make university education more accessible, affordable, interactive and student-centered. Instantly Shifting Classes Online Is Not Trivial.
